My Recommendations List Episode II
Anime:
Dokkoida; for that crazy Fox Kids-type Saturday morning cartoon feel with some things for the more mature audience
Popotan; an adorable, weird, goofy, funny, kawaii-overdose ecchi (meaning tits) anime
Majutsushi Orphen (aka Orphen Season 1); for people who enjoyed magic anime like Slayers
World of Narue; Space girl comes to earth and falls in love with a boy, fun for everyone
Jigoku Shoujo; People get revenge on the evil jackasses who usually deserve it
Movies:
Blade Runner; For Sci-fi similar to The Fifth Element with Harrison Ford killing Replicants
9; An awesome animated steampunk movie produced by Tim Burton is like a cross between Fallout 3 and Little Big Planet (while that combination may seem sketchy, it actually works really well)
Bruno; While not as great as Borat (in my opinion) you still get some great moments from Sasha Baron Cohen
Music:
Chimaira; awesome brutal metal band recommended by my good buddy Chris
GWAR; my personal favorite metal band of all time
Moi Dix Mois; Gothic Japanese Metal band that preformed at AX 2009
Children of Bodom; Another recommendation by Chris, was unable to say no once I heard their metal renditions of 'Talk Dirty to Me' and 'Oops! I Did it Again;
Korpiklaani; Northern European metal that sounds like something Vikings would listen to if they were still around
Green Day; If you haven't heard of them, get out of your fucking cave. Their last two albums 'American Idiot' and '21st Century Breakdown' are epic
That's all for now. More to come... possibly.

Give Me a Hand this Metal is Kinda Heavy
I added yet another manga to the list today, does that make me crazy or just bored? I hope the latter. Anyways check out Yakitate! Japan in the feed bar. It's about a boy seeking to create a bread unique to Japan seeing as how there is already French bread, English bread and German bread. I thoroughly enjoyed watching the anime and just discovered the manga. It's quite funny and also pretty informative about food. Being a food lover lets me enjoy this manga twice as much.
Haven't Really gotten around to Civ 4's expansions yet, but I think I'll get to it tomorrow. I've decided to start with warlords because I just want to crush people.
I'm very into Moi Dix Mois lately. There music is just my style. It sounds very european, they usually have instrumental tracks, it's pretty awesome metal, there's bit of techno thrown in and last but not least it's a japanese band. What more could I ask for in a band? Besides GWAR playing a concert in my back yard not much.
Seeing as how I'm on the topic of music I might as well divulge my favorite genre: Metal. Of course Rock (along with most of it's sub genres) and Goth tally a close second. But I hate Christian rock, soft rock and country rock. Firstly I'm not a christian and I don't appreciate them pushing their beliefs in one of my favorite genres. Secondly soft rock is pussy music that's why it's called soft, also isn't the term soft rock an oxymoron? As for country rock, it just disagrees with my ears. Now if you truly appreciate rock and/or metal music you should go out and find a copy of Metal: A Head banger's Journey (buy it here). It is an excellent documentary tracing the roots of metal through blues, rock, classical and the like. I guarantee that it will be an enlightening experience.
